Trapped inside the subterranean chamber, Lyra refuses to wait for Dorian to find a solution. She examines the main console, searching through unfamiliar controls for a manual release mechanism. Most of the switches are protected by security covers, while several screens display warnings about unauthorized access. Dorian insists that the emergency system is too dangerous to operate without proper authorization. But Lyra no longer trusts his explanations. While inspecting a section of the console hidden beneath a loose metal panel, she discovers a small toggle switch with an unusual label: her mother’s exact birthdate. The discovery sends a chill through her. Why would a security system contain such a personal detail? She hesitates before moving the switch. Instantly, the chamber lights turn blue, and a low mechanical rumble travels through the floor. A narrow section of the wall slides open, revealing a secondary emergency hatch. Dorian steps backward in disbelief, claiming he has never seen that passage before. Lyra realizes someone designed this escape route specifically for her. But was it her mother—or someone who knew her mother better than anyone?
